How to Assemble Tools to Fish, Trap, and Hunt in a Survival Situation.

Sport fishing and hunting isn’t the same as survival fishing and hunting. “Sport” implies there is an element of chance and fair play. To a survivor, the concept of rules and regulations should seem ridiculous. After all, why would a survivor or someone in an emergency consider the confines of sport fishing and hunting if they’re starving? In a real disaster, there is no such thing as a bag limit, minimum length, or poaching.

As majestic as they are, in the absence of wildlife protection, even the bald eagle might be on the dinner table if you’re hungry enough. We’ve been field tested and we know the frustration of watching supper run, swim, or fly away. We’ve also learned that with the right tools and a few no-nonsense ways of fishing and trapping, it’s easy to make sure your dinner plate isn’t empty at the end of the day.

The differentiator between frustrated and fed is preparing like a predator and casting aside socially acceptable methods of food procurement. We’re not going to apologize for telling you how to kill prey and feed yourself with the gear and methods that follow. It’s been said Chuck Norris doesn’t hunt or fish because there’s a chance for failure in those sports — he just kills sh*t. Follow our lead and you too can be like Chuck.

Fishing

Sport fishing rules and regulation books may define fishing as a single baited hook attached to a pole held by an angler.This is meant to protect a species from overfishing.
